Using the oven This multifunction oven makes it possible to carry out various types of cooking, depending on the nature of the food, its firmness and volume. All cooking must be done with the oven door closed.The oven light remains on with all cooking functions. The oven control knob symbols are listed together with a brief description of the functions. Function (fig.1) control 0 knob By turning this control knob, you can select any of the following functions: Fig.
Attention Do not place pans, dripping pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil on the oven bottom (fig. 2). This could cause a heat build-up which would affect the baking results and damage the oven enamel. YES Thermostat control knob (fig.3) By turning the thermostat control knob clockwise you select the cooking temperature. Temperature selection starts at 50°C and is marked in 25°C increments up to maximum, where the temperature at the centre of the oven will reach approximately 250°C.
Cooling fan The cooling fan is designed to cool the walls of the oven and the components of the oven itself. The fan switches on automatically after a few minutes of cooking. Warm air is blown out through the aperture near the oven door handle. When the oven is switched off, the fan will remain on in order to cool the oven and kitchen cabinets properly, after which it switches off automatically. NOTE: The fan may run up to 45 minutes after cooking has been completed.
Electronic programmer The electronic timer can indicate the time of day and automatically operate the oven. Before the oven can be operated, the time of day must be set on the electronic timer. Please note that this is a 24 hour clock. For example, 2pm is shown as 14:00. In case of loss of power, all the settings (time of day, set program or program in operation), will be cancelled. When the power is restored, the numbers on the display will flash, and the timer has to be reset.
FTo set the time of day When the appliance is plugged in for the first time or after a long disconnection, the time display will show "AUTO" and "0.00" blinking. 1. Turn the function knob to the symbols, then push the knob once and then release it. 2. Turn the setting knob to the left or right hand side to adjust the time of day 3. When the display shows the correct time of day, release the setting knob and wait 3/4 seconds. The clock will automatically start counting the time.
FTo set the minute minder 1. Turn the function knob to the symbol, then push the knob once and then release it. The display will show "0.00". 2. Within 5 seconds, turn the setting time knob until the duration time is displayed; the display symbol will appear. If no time setting is entered within 5 seconds, the display will revert to the time of day and the setting operation is aborted. 3. When the display shows the correct duration time, release the setting knob and wait 3/4 seconds.
At the end of the duration cooking time, the oven will switch off. An alarm will sound, the symbol will switch off and the "Auto" symbol on the display will flash.

After a programme which has been set ends its operation, it is automatically cancelled. F Alarm The alarm will sound at the end of a timed period (minute minder or end of cooking time function) for a period of 7 minutes. To switch off the alarm, press the function knob.
F How to use the meat probe FO 0710 1. Insert the probe sensor into the centre of the meat, taking care to avoid touching any bone or pockets of fat as this will give a false temperature reading. 2. Place the meat, in a suitable tin, into the oven cavity. 3. First raise the meat probe cover (1), which is located in the top of the left hand side of the oven and plug the jack plug into its socket (2). The insertion of the jack plug automatically activates the meat probe function 4.
Conventional Cooking Conventional cooking This function uses the top and lower elements to give single level cooking. This is particularly suitable for dishes which require extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans. Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven. This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan in operation. Hints and tips The middle shelf position allows for the best heat distribution.
Cooking Chart - Conventional Cooking NB: Temperatures, runner positions and cooking times are provided as a guide only and should be adjusted to suit personal taste.
Using the fan oven The Fan Oven Hints and tips The air inside the oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven, the element heats the air which is circulated into the oven via the top, base and sides of the back panel. The advantages of cooking with this function are: Runner positions are not critical, but make sure the shelves are evenly spread.
The effects of dishes on cooking results Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to the food inside them: A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and underneath browning. B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and underneath browning. Fig.
Hints and tips Dual grill Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film to prevent drying out during defrosting. Small or thin pieces of fish fillet or peeled prawns, mince, liver and thin chops will defrost in 1-2 hours. Ensure that they are cooked or refrigerated immediately after defrosting to maintain good food hygiene. Place the food to be defrosted in a single layer and turn over half way through the defrosting process, where possible.
Economy grill Important: All grilling must be carried out with the oven door closed and the grill pan handle removed from the pan. The inner grill provides, quick direct heat to the central area of the grill pan. By using the inner grill for cooking small quantities it can help to save energy. Always grill with the door closed and remove the grill pan handle. Place the food in the centre of of the grid in the grill pan.
Be prepared to make adjustments during cooking to suit individual requirements. If fan grilling on more than one level, it may be necessary to interchange the food on the shelves during cooking. COOKING TIMES - Cooking is more gentle, therefore food generally takes a little longer to cook with fan grilling compared with conventional grilling. One of the advantages is that larger loads can be cooked at the same time.
Cleaning the oven Grease filter When roasting meat, be sure to install the special grease filter to protect the fan in the rear wall of the oven from fat splashes. After roasting is completed, remove the grease filter and clean thoroughly with warm soapy water. As it is stainless steel you can safely wash it in the dishwasher. To remove the grease filter, pull up the protruding tongue and then pull the filter outwards removing it from the rear panel (Fig. 6).
Removing the oven shelf supports Unscrew the ring nuts securing the shelf supports (Fig. 7) and remove the supports after sliding them out of their retaining pins. Warning Always unplug the appliance before removing the back panel. To remove the back panel use a screwdriver. This is a good opportunity to clean the back of the rear panel. Wash the panels with very hot water and a detergent using a soft cloth.
The oven door seal Periodically check the seal around the opening of the oven to see whether there is any damage. If damaged, do not use the equipment before having it repaired, consult the nearest service centre and use only original spares. When cleaning the seal do not use abrasive objects or substances. Replacing appliance components Prior to undertaking any maintenance work or replacing the oven light, be sure to disconnect appliance from the electricity supply.
Cleaning the hinged grill This model has been fitted with a hinged grill element to enable you to clean the roof of the oven easily. Before proceeding ensure the oven is cool and is isolated from the electricity supply. 1) Undo the screws which hold the grill in place (see fig. 10). When doing this operation for the first time, we recommend using a screwdriver. 2) Then gently pull the grill downward to allow access to the oven roof.
Cooking to reduce soilage Cook at the recommended temperatures. Higher temperatures during roasting will increase soilage. Try cooking to lower temperatures for an increased length of time, you will save energy and often the joint is more tender. Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when roasting meat; potatoes only require brushing with fat before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during roasting will increase splashing and soilage. It is NOT necessary to add water to the meat tin when roasting.
